Question #101: Can Giants fly?

November
17

The defending Super Bowl champs are sure a much more fun bunch since they’ve abandoned, at least to some degree, the notion that everybody’s against them, that nobody’s giving them a chance.

Well, almost.

But in case you missed it, there were a number of great quotes coming out of the Giants’ lockerroom yesterday. You can see them in context in Mike Dougherty’s story in The Journal News and on LoHud.com here.

The short version:

Sean O’Hara: “It’s still us against the world. There’s just maybe not as many people on that world side.”

And the favorite from Brandon Jacobs, who’s a much better guy when he’s not so angry:

“I’m not surprised by anything we do. We’re capable of doing anything. You might see us fly one day.”

Is anybody going to tell him otherwise?

I wrote a column about New Rochelle’s Ray Rice, the Baltimore rookie who had some tough sledding against the flying Giants.

The flying Giants made a pretty good defense look pretty bad yesterday, and made a pretty good running team look awful and, well, continued to make a case that they are headed to another inevitable Super Bowl. I cannot fathom a single reason to think they won’t.

    After last weeks thumping of the Ravens, it wouldn’t surprise me to see the Giants pulling Santa’s sleigh next month.
